"The Score"

"The Score"


Well all right, baby
I guess I know the score
You better get to packin'
I don't want you around here anymore

You come home looking funky
Your clothes all in a mess
And your story wasn't fittin'
Any better than your dress

Well all right, baby
Now I know the score
Well you better get to gettin'
I don't want to see you around here anymore

You came in one time too many
Lyin' out both sides of your mouth
You said you was at your mother's
But I really got my doubts

I seen you at the Rainbow
Hangin' out with Red
And if I get my hands on you, baby
You're gonna wish that you were dead

Well all right, baby
Now I know the score
Well you better get to movin'
I don't want you around here anymore

You'd better get to goin', baby
I done got into your game, baby
Uh huh, thought you was foolin' me, huh?
Now I know, baby
I know better

I'll teach you not to cheat on me

Yeah, baby, comin' at 'ya

"The Things You Do To Me"

"The Things You Do To Me"


It's been so long
I really need to see you, baby
So long

When I called you up
And talked to you yesterday, baby
You really rocked me
Oh, you rocked me

I made my promise to you, darling
And I'm gonna do what needs be done

You've made me understand, baby
That hearts ain't made from stone
The things you do to me, yeah

Three o'clock in the morning
I wake up
Can't go back to sleep

I get a real, real, real good feeling
Way down inside
Knowing you're in love with me

It's so hard
To be away from you, baby
Only makes me want you more

You're so good to me, baby
It makes it hard to walk out that door

But, oh, the things you do to me
Yeah

I made my promise now, darling
And I'm gonna do what needs be done
Yes I am

You've made me understand, baby
That hearts ain't made from stone

And, oh, the things you do to me
Yeah

"The Way We Are"

"The Way We Are"


Turn around and close the door
Shed your sadness to the floor
Doesn't matter what's been said
That's just the way we are

Never mind who's wrong or right
Cause we're together here tonight
And what be brought into the light
Makes us the way we are

Love has a way of always
Testing you
We've built a home of trust, we can always
Come back to

Can you imagine us today?
If all our dreams were locked away
And we weren't strong enough to say
That's just the way we are

Love has a way of always
Testing you
We've built a home of trust, we can always
Come back to

Imagine us today
If all our dreams were locked away
And we weren't strong enough to say
That's just the way we are
And together we will stay
The way we are

Way we are

Way we are

"There's Nothing Wrong"

"There's Nothing Wrong"


I've got to move on
I think a change will do me better
There's nothing wrong
We finally agree

I gave you my heart
Got nothing in return
You tore it apart, yeah
Cause you want to be free

So I'm gonna wait till tomorrow
See the morning light
Forget about our problems
Forget about last night
And I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
Till love comes round again

I'm gonna go on
I've just got to forget her
There's nothing wrong
That's how it's got to be

You never gave your heart, baby
Took a while to learn
I need a brand-new start
So I can be me

And I'm gonna wait till tomorrow
And see the morning light
Forget about our problems
Forget about last night
And I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
Till love comes round again

Oh, I'm gonna wait till tomorrow
And see the morning light
Forget about our problems
Forget about last night
And I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
Till love comes round again

I've got to move on
I know a change will do me better
There's nothing wrong
We finally agree

I gave you my heart, baby
Got nothing in return
You tore it all apart
Cause you want to be free

And I'm gonna wait till tomorrow
And see the morning light
Forget about our problems
Forget about last night
And I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
Till love comes round again

And I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait
Till love comes round again

And I'm gonna wait, and wait
Till love comes round again

For love to come back
Someday, baby

Nothing wrong, baby

"These Things"

"These Things"


These things made our love come to an end
Oh these things
Hey baby, thought you were my friend
Stepping out, playing around
All of these things, baby
Really let me down
Oh and I know

"This Time"

"This Time"


Tell me, before you go away.
Tell me, this time, won't cha?
Tell me the reason why you play the games you choose to play.
I'll take a guess it's because- you've got another.
And you're ashamed of the fact- that I know, yeah.
That it's all just a lie, but I'll stand here and let you walk by, like before.
I've done nothin' wrong.

Tell me, this time, won't cha?
Tell me, where are you gonna stay? Hey hey!
Tell me yeah- this time, won't cha?
Gimme one reason why you change your world again today.
You say- there's no love here.
And there's no turnin' back, like before, no.
I wish you'd make up your mind.
It's up to you to finally decide,
'cause I know- I've done nothin' wrong.

So long, goodbye, I love you.
Say it's the last time, fair you well.
Go! Go!

It happens time after time.
It's up to you to finally decide, 'cause I know- I've done nothin' wrong.

It's gonna take a whole lotta pride.
Goodbye, baby.
This time.

"Time Makes Two"

"Time Makes Two"


Time makes two love,
Makes them more than friends.
Time makes true love,
More than just pretend.

Makes you count the nights,
And the moments we're apart.

Time will heal your troubles,
When you got the blues.
Heal the burnin' heartache,
But your right back in the groove.

But time will take it's toll on you,
If you don't play it smart...

Because time it makes to,
It takes two to heal a broken heart.

Time makes two love,
Feel eachother's pain.
And I'm so proud of you love.
So proud to be your man.

Time makes two.
Oh, time makes two.
Time makes two.
Yah know, time makes two, it takes two
To heal a broken heart.

Time makes two, it takes two,
To heal a broken heart.

It makes you more than friends.

Time makes two, time makes two.
Makes you feel eachother's pain.

Time makes two, it takes two,
To heal a broken heart.

Makes you more than friends.

Time makes two, it takes two,
To heal a broken heart.

Time makes two,
Time makes two,
Times makes two...

Time makes two,
Time makes two...

"Tollin' Bells"

"Tollin' Bells"


Well
The big bell is tollin'
Trouble
Is heading north

Well
The big bell, it's tollin'
Trouble
Is heading north

Well, it's so my baby
And it let me
Here all alone

Well
My head
Is so heavy
When the sun starts sinkin' low

Well
My head
Ain't so heavy
When the sun starts sinkin' low

It put my soul
On a wonder
Whew, which way did my baby go?

Well
I heard a loud singing
Saw some slow marching
I heard
Deep moaning
And, oh, that was my whole life
And these tears
From my eyes
Keep on
Streamin' down

I keep crying
For my baby
And I know she can't be found

"Too Many Cooks"

"Too Many Cooks"


Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you

Too many cooks are trying to get in your kitchen
The first thing you know there's something missin'
You got a real good oven, you've got a hot range, too
Let me butter your buns while you stir the stew

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you

The stew that you're cooking, it smells so good
It's got everybody talking in the neighborhood
Your spice's so spicy, your sugar so sweet
Your meat is so tender and your juice is a treat

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you

Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
Too many cooks are gonna spoil the stew
There ain't nobody cooking but me and you

No, ain't nobody cooking, baby
In my house, in my kitchen
But me and you
Awwww

"Trick Or Treat"

"Trick Or Treat"


You say you love me, babe
But you don't know
When I tell you I want to take you out
And you don't want to go, girl

So if you love me
(Don't say you like me)
And if you like me
(Don't say you love me)
I can't wait to Halloween to find out
If it's trick or treat

I love you, babe
But you play a many pack, girl (not sure?)
Cause you know, you know, you know
That ain't where it's at, baby

Cause if you love me
(Don't say you like me)
And if you like me
(Don't say you love me)
Cause I can't wait to Halloween to find out
If it's trick or treat

You can make life good, make it a drag
With all those good things you got cooking in your bag

Now I want you to treat me, baby
Cause you got just what it takes, girl
I've been tricked so many times before
With everything I've made, girl

So if you love me
(Don't say you like me)
And if you like me
(Don't say you love me)
I can't wait to Halloween to find out
If it's trick or treat

What is it, baby?
Tell me, I wanna know
What is it?
Is it tricks or treats?
Gotta know, babe
Is it tricks or treats?
What's in your bag, babe
Is it tricks or treats?
